The numpy.polymul function finds the product (multiplication) of two polynomials a1 and a2. As an input, use either poly1d objects or one-dimensional sequences of polynomial coefficients. If you use the latter, arange this polynomial sequence naturally from highest to lowest degree. Arguments Type Description a1, a2 array_like or poly1d object The input polynomials to be … Read more
Are you confusing about SQLite Python Placeholders? It’s time for better understanding! Learn how in this tutorial. Introduction SQLite is an embedded open-source relational database engine. Its developers, from SQLite.org, call it a self-contained, serverless, zero-configuration, fast, reliable and transactional SQL database engine. It keeps things simple. SQLite “just works.” The SQLite library is also … Read more
Short answer: The most Pythonic way to compute the difference between two lists l1 and l2 is the list comprehension statement [x for x in l1 if x not in set(l2)]. This works even if you have duplicate list entries, it maintains the original list ordering, and it’s efficient due to the constant runtime complexity … Read more
Short summary of the main points in the video: Freelancing is a mega-trend that will disrupt the organization of the world’s labor in the next 10-20 years. Freelancing platforms such as Upwork and Fiverr grow at 20% per year. You can participate in this trend by focusing on one tiny niche—and become world-class at it. … Read more
To convert a list lst of strings to a string, use the ”.join(lst) method with an empty separator string between the elements. If you have a list of objects, first convert each element to a string and join the result with the generator expression ”.join(str(x) for x in lst). Problem: Given a list of elements. … Read more
To join a list of DataFrames, say dfs, use the pandas.concat(dfs) function that merges an arbitrary number of DataFrames to a single one. When browsing StackOverflow, I recently stumbled upon the following interesting problem. By thinking about solutions to those small data science problems, you can improve your data science skills, so let’s dive into … Read more
To convert a Python list to a NumPy array, use either of the following two methods: Exercise: Create array b from array a using both methods. Then change a value in array a. What happens at array b? NumPy vs Python Lists The Python built-in list data type is powerful. However, the NumPy array has … Read more
To join and replace all strings in a list lst between start index 1 and end index 5, use the one-liner lst[1:5] = [”.join(lst[1:5])]. This solution is based on slice assignment that selects the slice you want to replace on the left and the values to replace it on the right side of the assignment. … Read more

Definition np.cumsum(x): The function computes the cumulative sum of a NumPy array. For an array x with elements [a b c d] the cumulative sum is [a a+b a+b+c a+b+c+d]. Formally, each array element with index i is the sum of all elements with index j<i. numpy.cumsum(a, axis=None, dtype=None, out=None) Arguments: a — Array-like data … Read more
The Python built-in list data type is powerful. However, the NumPy array has many advantages over Python lists. What are they? Advantages NumPy Advantages Python Lists Multi-dimensional Slicing Library-Independent Broadcasting Functionality Intuitive Processing Speed Less Complicated Memory Footprint Heterogeneous List Data Allowed Many Convenience Methods Arbitrary Data Shape (Non-Square Matrix) Let’s dive into the most … Read more
